Have You the Wing?

Email Sent in by Stephen:

Dear Stephen:

I am so appreciative of you taking me out last Sunday. I don't mean to come across the wrong way but I really really like you a lot and I think I could easily see a future between us.

This might be a strange question, and I understand if you don't think it's a good idea just yet, but I have to admit that I'm curious: do you think it would be a good idea to get married? As in you and I, this week? Unusual, yes! But let me explain: I don't have a lot of time left before menopause and I don't remember being this excited about someone in a long time. Remember back when arranged marriages were the norm? Couples knew even less about each other than you and I do now, and yet many of them had long lifetimes together!

I want you to give it some careful thought and let me know. Really think about it. Call me if you like to talk about it. We're a really good fit and I think we should seriously consider it.

Rosie

  1. Good way to scare someone off. Hmmm...

  2. Is this the new way to say that you're not into a guy / send him off running? If that was the goal, mission accomplished!

    I specially like the bit about approaching menopause at age 24, nice touch!
